But then , she quickly pretended she hadnt heard anything and continued on her way .
Seeing this , Sandra rushed up and grabbed Noelles hand just as she was about to get into the elevator .
Noelle , why are you ignoring me ? Is this where you live now ? Why do you put yourself through all this suffering ? If you need- Let go , Noelle ordered , her face devoid of any emotion .
Standing there , Sandra locked eyes with Noelle for a second before breaking out into a smile .
Noelle, dont be like this .
Do you know what the situation at home is right now ? Mom has fallen ill , and things in the company arent that great , either .
Its all because- Werent you the one who set all of this up ? asked Noelle , cutting in mid sentence .
L Sandra wanted to defend herself , but Noelle continued to say , Do you remember the talk we had in the car that night ? Well , I had secretly recorded everything you said .
W What ? uttered Sandra , stunned .
Even though the Swansons dont care whether I live or die how do you think theyll react when they find out the daughter theyve nurtured so carefully for years turned out to be this evil ? Sandras face grew even paler .
Her lips trembled , as if trying to form words , but after a long silence , she still couldnt find her voice .
Noelle , however , had no interest in her struggles .
Are you letting go or not ? she asked impatiently .
Sandra snapped back to her senses and blurted out , Youre lying , arent you , Noelle ? Because if you really did have those recordings , you would have used them already .
Youre just trying to trick me ! I didnt play it for the Swansons because I couldnt be bothered to stoop to your level .
But if you keep pestering me , dont expect me to show mercy .
Those words drained all the color from Sandras face .
Her grip on Noelles hand gradually loosened until she finally let go .
Just as Noelle turned to leave , Sandra suddenly said , But its true that Mom is sick , and its serious .
The doctor said she might have less than six months to live .
Are you really not going to see her ? Six months ? Noelle turned to look at her .
What nonsense are you spouting ? Sandra smirked .
So , you really dont know , huh ? Figures .
Moms always been so strong willed , so shed never let you know .
But regardless , shes still the woman who gave birth to you .
Can you really live with yourself if you dont visit her ? Noelle didnt respond , but her hands hanging by her side slowly balled into fists .
Shes at the hospital right now , Sandra added softly .
You should spare some time to visit her .
Im sure shed be happy to see you .
With that , Sandra turned around and walked away .
But she didnt go far .
After leaving the apartment building where Noelle lived , she returned to the taxi shed been using and stared silently out the window .
Miss , are we leaving or not ? asked the driver impatiently Shut up ! Sandra snapped , her irritation spilling over .
Before the driver could say another word , she tossed two bills into the front seat .
The driver pocketed the cash without a word , his earlier annoyance vanishing instantly .
Sandra continued to fix her gaze on the scenery outside the window .
It was nearly 8:00 pm by now .
After spending over an hour waiting by the roadside , the tension coiled tightly in her chest began to ease bit by bit .
She had been right all along Yvonne was just spouting nonsense .
